100%, Stretch Goals and more!By Nika Bauman, on 02/06/2022

Dear supporters! Incredible but true - we have reached our primary goal in only 11 days! We are overwhelmed with gratitude to all of you who helped us make it this fast. Since there is still 19 days left, we have decided to introduce a stretch goal, an extra 1000 Euros which will help us cover more of our travel costs this summer (and hopefully a sandwich or too while we’re on the road) as well as copyrights and costs of promotion of the new album. In other words, we’re not done yet! Share the campaign with your circle of friends and family (don’t forget the rich and generous art supporters) and help us reach this goal! We are cosidering adding a few more rewards as well, and to make it even more interesting, for every 200 we reach, we will be sharing a special edition blooper by Marko Ferlan - believe us, it’s quite worth it.

Much love from Ensemble Illyrica
